Root6 will be showcasing the latest release of Content Agent at 7.E21. We’ll have the latest rev in conjunction with IBC. Card based file workflows and integration into Avid’s MediaComposer, Isis and Interplay workflow is excellent. Key Code Media has our system connected to Isis, MediaComposer and Interplay.

Card Based WorkflowsContentAgent now supports P2, XDCAM, XDCAM EX, AVC-HD and Canon XF card structures from broadcast cameras, importing both media and metadata before transcoding or rewrapping in the user’s desired format. We will also be demonstrating automated card based ingest direct into Avid Interplay.

Advanced Frame Rate ConversionContentAgent’s Advanced Frame Rate Conversion module replaces expensive legacy baseband workflows with a powerful, resolution independent , file-based tool. Utilising state of the art CPU and GPU processing, the new tool facilitates not only traditional PAL/NTSC conversions, but expands across all frame rates, deals with field order/progressive frames/cadence issues and scales across all resolutions to 4K.
